Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a panelling system and to a carrier therefor.
- One known form of panelling system includes panels each of which includes a main panel portion with a inturned side portion on each of each two opposite side. One side portion has, at its free edge, a rim which is formed by being turned towards the other side portion and subsequently towards the main panel portion. The other side portion has, at its free edge, arm which is turned away from the one side portion.
- Existing panelling systems have included carriers which support the panelling and these carriers take many different forms. They can include elongate carriers with clips attached thereto, as, for example, shown in British Patent 2026077, or they can be formed by elongate members, for example, of inverted U or V-shaped, having notches formed therein which provide lugs which hold the panels in place. Such carriers normally require the panels themselves to be assembled in a sequential manner, starting at one end and finishing at the other end of the surface to be covered. Disassembly of the panelling system has to be effected in the reverse sequence which can be very inconveniant if access is desired to only a particular part of the panelling system, for example to have access to an electrical fitting or particular portion of pipework in a plumbing system.
- For this reason, particularly for the application of panelling to a ceiling, the carriers have been provided with the certain amount of play in an upward direction towards the carrier, so as to enable dismounting of an intermediate panel. Apart from this, the conventional carriers are normally restricted to ceiling applications where the panels are kept in engagement by gravity, and the suspended panels may lift of inadvertently or may rattle under the action of wind. It has been proposed to insert additional spacers between the panel elements and the under sides of the carrier profiles to prevent this unintentional upward movement. Such a solution, however, it not fully satisfactory, as it.is necessary to use additional labour and reduces the possibility of intermediate panel removal. It has also been proposed to provide for additional retainment of the panels in the longitudinal direction of the carriers, if the particular requirements have to be fulfilled in respect of resistance against deformation and loosening during fire. The known retaining means for that purpose could not ensure proper working and then did not allow removal of an intermediate panel.
- It is now proposed, according to the present invention to provide a carrier for supporting panelling, the panels of which each have a main panel portion with an inturned side portion on each of two opposite sides, one side having, at its free edge, a rim which is turned towards the other side portion and subsquently towards the main panel portion, and the other side portion having, at its free edge, an arm which is turned away from the one side portion, said carrier comprising an elongate body securable to a support structure; at least one body portion carried by said elongate body; a plurarity of lugs on said body portion, the lugs being longitudinally spaced from one another, each lug being substantially rigid and including a hook-shaped tongue spaced from a surface on the associated body portion surface to engage in the rim of one panel, a space adjacent said hook-shaped tongue and a locking portion arranged directly on said body portion on the opposite side of the space from said hook-shaped tongue said locking portion serving to hold the rim of one panel against the tongue of the relevant lug and to urge the arm of the adjacent panel against the rim of said one panel, said locking portion being positioned and dimensioned to operate with the arm of the adjacent panel, whereby, with one panel having its rim engaged on the hook-shaped tongue and the adjacent panel having its arm resting on the rim of said one panel and being held in position by said locking portion, the arm of said adjacent panel can be moved into a further part of said space, by pressure applied to said adjacent panels to move the arm and part of said of other side portion along side the locking portion, to provide sufficient space for the rim of the one panel to be disengaged from the tongue and be removed from the carrier.
- Such a carrier can be used for supporting panels disposed either vertically or horizontally that is on walls or ceilings and resists the accidental removal of the panels mounted on the carrier.
- It is a further advantage of the construction of the present invention that the carrier in inexpensive to manufacture and easy to use in assembling or disassembling the panelling whether at the edges or at an intermediate location of the panelling. In fact the construction in such that the locking portions are so arranged that it is possible to remove a panel after a special sequence of operations involving also the panel adjacent to the panel concerned.
- The locking portion is preferably rounded or chamfered adjacent to the further part of the space thus to facilitate the movement of the arm and part of the side portion along side the locking portion.
- One particular construction according to the invention has the body portion in the form of a U or V Shaped cross-section elongate member having two legs forming the arms of the U or V, and the two legs are each provided with lugs, spaces and locking portions at the same axial location. Such a construction is particularly easy to manufacture and therefore inexpensive.
- Advantageously, immediately above the locking portion, the legs of the U- or V-shaped carrier are each provided with openings for the insertion of a retaining member. This retaining member can ensure that the panel cannot accidently be removed, but yet they allow the panel to be removed deliberately.
- The invention also provides a panelling system comprising panels which each have a main panel portion, an inturned side portion on each of two sides, one side portion having at its free edge a rim which is turned towards the other side portion and subsequently towards the main panel portion, and the other side portion having, at its free edge, an arm which is turned away from one side portion, a plurality of carriers each comprising an elongate body securable to a support structure, at least one body portion carried by said elongate body, a plurality of lugs on said body portion, the lugs being longitudinally spaced from one another, each lug being substantially rigid and including a hook-shaped tongue spaced from a surface on the associated body portion and engaged in the rim of one panel a space being provided adjacent said hook-shaped tongue and a locking portion being arranged directly on said body portion on the opposite side of the space from said hook-shaped tongue, the locking portion holding the rim of one panel against the tongue of the relevant lug and the arm of the adjacent panel against the rim, said locking portion being positioned and dimensioned to co-operate with the arm of the adjacent panel whereby, with one panel having its rim engaged on the hook-shaped tongue and the adjacent panel having its arm resting on the rim of said one panel being held in position by said locking portion, the arm of said adjacent panel can be moved into a further part of said space to move the arm and part of said other side portion alongside the locking portion to provide sufficient space for the rim of the one panel to be disengaged from the tongue and for removal from the carrier.
- According to a further aspect of the present invention there is provided a panelling system comprising panels which each have a main panel portion, an inturned side portion on each of two sides, one side portion having at its free edge a rim which is turned towards the other side portion, and the other side portion having, at its free edge, an arm which is turned away from the one side portion, a plurality of carriers each comprising an elongage body securable to a support structure, at least one body portion carried by said elongate body, a plurality of lugs on said body portion, the lugs being longitudinally spaced from one another, each lug being substantially rigid and including a tongue spaced from a surface on the associated body portion and engaged by the rim of said one panel, a space being provided adjacent to the tongue and a locking portion being arranged directly on said body portion on the opposite side of the space from said tongue, said locking portion holding the rim of one panel against the tongue of the relevant lug and the arm of the adjacent panel against the rim, openings formed in said at least one body portion adjacent to the locking portion and retaining members inserted in said openings to engage the said other side portion of a panel and thereby retain the panel in position.
- In order that the present invention may more readily be understood, the following description is given, merely by way of example, reference being made to the accompanying drawing which: -
- Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of embodiment of carrier according to the present invention;
- Figure 2 is a side elevation of a portion of the carrier of Figre 1 shown with three panels mounted thereon;
- Figure 3 is fragmentary top plan view showing the insertion of the further retaining means; and
- Figure 4 is a side elevation, similiar to Figure 2, but showing the retaining means in the final position.
- Referring first to Figure 1 the
area 10 is of generally inverted U-shape having a web 11 and twolegs 12. - At spaced intervals the
legs 12 are provided, adjacent therelower edges 13, withnotches 14 which define hook-shaped lugs 15 having aspace 16 thereabove so that thelugs 15 are spaced from asurface 17 of theleg 12. - In each instance, to the left of the hook-
shaped lug 15 is alocking portion 18 which ends, at its right end in a rounded orchamfered section 19. - Immediately above the
locking portion 18 is a slot shapedopening 20. - As seen in figure 2, three
panels 24 are mounted on thecarrier 10. Each panel consists of amain panel portion 25 having a inturnedside portion 26 on its left side and the second inturnedside portion 27 on its right side. The first inturnedportion 26 is formed with a rim 38 at its free edge which is turned towards theother side portion 27 of that panel and then towards themain panel portion 25 of that panel. Theside portion 27 is provided with anarm 29 which is turned away from the oneside portion 26 of that panel. - As can be seen in the drawing an
arm 29 of one panel is inserted into thespace 16 so that it passes above the hook-shaped lug 15 and the panel is then pivoted so that the arm extends into thenotch 14 at the location at the next pair oflugs 15. Therim 28 is urged upwardly and then moved to the right, so that it hooks over the hook-shaped lug 15 to hold the panel in place. The next panel to the left is then positioned in the same way and so on. In this condition, the left hand end of eacharm 29 abuts against the lower surface of thelocking portion 18 thus to retain the arm and the rim of the adjacent panel in position. Thus the hook-shaped lug engaged in the rim prevents the panel from moving laterally accidently. - When it is desired to remove a panel, whether it be a side panel or an intermediate panel, one presses upwardly as indicated by the arrow 1 in Figure 2 and the panel takes up the position indicated in dotted lines. The provision of the rounded or chamfered part of the locking portion enables the
side portion 27, and its associatedarm 29 to move upwardly intospace 16. And thereafter one carriers out the upward movement indicated by the arrow 2 of the left side of thepanel 24, which is then moved slightly to the left as indicated by the arrow 3 and then lowered as indicated by the arrow 4. In this way therim 28 is disengaged from the hook-shaped lug 15. - The purpose of the
opening 20 is to enable a retaining member in the form of a T-section strip to be inserted of to the panels are in position. As indicated in Figure 3 the retaining member 35 is a generally T shaped cross section and has a sharpenedend 36 and ahead 37. With the panel in position one pushes this strip through the twoopenings 20 associated with the edge of a pair of panels. This is indicated clearly in Figure 3. With the strip 35 in this position one bends the end downwardly to the position illustrated in Figure 4. It will be seen at theend 36 is then engaged to the left of theside portion 27 of a panel so that the panel cannot be readily be removed. This is particularly important in a file situation in which the panels are subjected to heat and therefore to a buckling action. The provision of the retaining means 35 prevents the panels from falling down and therefore enables the panelling system to meet fire regulations. - It will be appreciated that the structure of the present invention is very simple and yet is effective.
